The Blueprint & The Battle Scars: Scaling, Selling, and Starting Again | With John Kresevic of Turbo Insurance Group

What would you do if you had $5,000 left, a license, and a dream?

In this episode of The CEO1440 Show, we go deep with John Kresevic, former CEO of JFQ Lending, who scaled his mortgage company from 7 to over 700 LO’s, funded $4.5 billion in loans, and sold it during one of the worst markets in modern memory. Now? He’s helping brokers across the country close more deals through Turbo Insurance.

We talk:

• How he funded his startup by going exempt on taxes for a year
  
  

• Why he bet on direct mail when others chased LendingTree leads
  
  

• The 75-page sales playbook he used to train every single LO
  
  

• Why the best LO’s today aren't spending more—they’re doing less, better
  
  

• How his new insurance company saves deals that were dying from HOI bloat
  
  

This one’s part blueprint, part battle story—and fully worth your time if you want to grow in 2025.

Bonus: If you're running into deals dying because of insurance costs, this episode breaks down how you can save them—and even build another referral stream through Turbo Insurance.
